1903 Map of Paterson

USGS Topo · Published 1909

About this map

Industrial expansion and complex hydrological engineering define this region at the start of the 20th century. The Passaic River and Hackensack River anchor a landscape where natural topography meets intensive development, most notably at the Morris Canal and the Dundee Dam. The survey reveals a dense network of competing rail lines, such as the New York Susquehanna and Western Railroad, which carved through established settlements like North Paterson and Rochelle Park.
